Summary | "Judaism" by Israel Abrahams is a scholarly examination of the Jewish religion focusing on its doctrines and practices, likely written in the late 19th century. The book explores the evolution of Jewish religious thought and practices from the early Christian era through the significant historical shifts that shaped what is known as Judaism today. It provides insights into the complexities of belief systems, rituals, and the cultural context of the Jewish faith that has endured through centuries of change and challenges. The opening of the book establishes Abrahams' intent to discuss the foundational concepts of Judaism, tracing its legacy from ancient origins to its contemporary expressions. The author argues that Judaism emerged as a distinct religious identity following the Babylonian Exile and has since intertwined with the broader historical narratives of the Jewish people. He highlights the significance of the Covenant with God, the transition from Temple worship to community-focused practices, and the permeation of legalistic structures within the faith. This introductory section sets the stage for a deeper exploration of various aspects of Judaism, including its laws, observances, and mysticism, as well as the relationship between belief and moral conduct.
